The Dictator.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL VETERANS YOU KNOW!!!!!!

HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY !!  Some folks call today Easter Sunday, and I won't waste time today arguing about that, except most folks don't see the correlation between Jesus Christ arising from the dead, as He promised,...  and rabbits, chicks, eggs, and other subjects of fertility.   I believe that the term Easter appears once in the KJV Bible, and research tells us it was the Germanic goddess of fertility and Spring...  as the Church was misusing it's power to include yet pagan rituals -- with the death of our Lord Jesus....  ahem.  But the Resurrection is true enough, and actually, without it, our Christian Faith means nothing !!  The gates of heaven were then opened, and the Gentiles were allowed into the 'fold' --Congregation of God--  thank you very much, dear Lord, because most of our ancient German clan worshiped Oak trees and other goofy things as gods, and we truly NEEDED to find the One True God, and His Son, Jesus Christ !!  I am so truly happy and grateful for that!

Sorry to break the glad tidings of today, but obama is so busy working his evil, and now in the News, another abomination needs to be posted to all the public.  Remember that it was behind closed doors and with out the GOP where this goofy 'obama-care baloney' was crafted... and I might add that much of it had little to do with Health Care of Americans!!  And who can forget about Nancy Pelosi, the witch, saying, "We have to pass the bill to see what's in it."  Puke....
     Boy, are we getting a good dose of it today!  Sorry, again, to bring this terrible news to you all on an otherwise great day, dear friends.

Please share if you believe this article has merit, and also feel free to comment.

Obama the Dictator.    ..... You ain't seen nothin' yet !

Obama the Dictator
A chilling report from the Foreign Military Intelligence Directorate (GRU) prepared for Prime Minister Putin warns today that United States President Barack Obama has had served on 14 US Governors National Security Letters (NSLs) warning that if their actions in attempting to form what are called State Defense Forces are not halted they will face “immediate” arrest for the crime of treason.

The use of NSLs in the United States was authorized by the Patriot Act law enacted after the September 11, 2001 attacks and forbids anyone receiving them from even acknowledging their existence, and was reauthorized by Obama’s “rubberstamp” Congress this past February over the objections of both civil and human rights groups who warned they mimic similar type “government security notices” enacted under both the former German Nazi and Soviet Communist regimes.


To the issue angering Obama against these State Governors, this report continues, is their attempt to reestablish what are called State Defense Forces which are described as follows:
“State Defense Forces (SDF) (also known as State Guards, State Military Reserves, or State Militias) in the United States are military units that operate under the sole authority of a state government; they are not regulated by the National Guard Bureau nor are they part of the Army National Guard of the United States.
State Defense Forces are authorized by state and federal law and are under the command of the governor of each state. State Defense Forces are distinct from their state’s National Guard in that they cannot become federal entities.
The federal government recognizes State Defense Forces under 32 U.S.C. § 109 which provides that State Defense Forces as a whole may not be called, ordered, or drafted into the Armed Forces of the United States, thus preserving their separation from the National Guard.”
Important to note is that Obama, as President of the United States is also its most powerful military leader known by the term of Commander in Chief, and is authorized by the Militia Act of 1903 to federalize his individual States National Guard Forces putting them under his command, something he does not have the power to do with State Defense Forces.
Obama’s fear of these State Defense Forces, this report says, rests with his not having power over them, and with the bulk of the US Military Forces he does control being stretched to near breaking with the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan would leave these State military forces under the control of these Governors in “defacto control” of the United States.
The two US Governors spearheading this rebellion against Obama, this report states, are the Republican opposition party Governors of Minnesota, Tim Pawlenty and Texas, Rick Perry; both of whom have a deep fear their President is destroying their Nation.
Governor Pawlenty’s fear of Obama is that since he took office he has appeased America’s enemies while at the same time shunning some of America’s most stalwart allies, especially Israel. Governor Pawlenty recently castigated Obama for abandoning the US missile defense plan for Europe by saying, “The lessons of history are clear: Appeasement and weakness did not stop the Nazis, did not stop the Soviets, and did not stop the terrorists before 9/11. We must stand strong with allies like Israel and eastern Europe in the face of growing challenges to our national security.”
Governor Perry has blasted Obama and warned his fellow Texans that the President is “hell bent on socialism” and is punishing his State by dumping tens-of-thousands of illegal Mexican immigrants into their cities and small towns. Governor Perry further warned Texans that that if “Barack Obama’s Washington doesn’t stop being so oppressive, Texans might feel compelled to renounce their American citizenry and secede from the union.”
Note: Following the end of the Civil War the rights of the individual US States to succeed from the Union was heard by their Supreme Court in a case called Texas v. White (1869) and who ruled that the Constitution did not permit States to secede from the United States, and that the ordinances of secession, and all the acts of the legislatures within seceding States intended to give effect to such ordinances, were “absolutely null”.“through revolution, or through consent of the States.” However, the decision did allow some possibility of divisibility
Obama, in fearing a revolution against him by the States, this report continues, has moved swiftly against them, including nationalizing nearly all National Guard Forces in Governor Pawlenty’s Minnesota in what is being described as their State’s largest call up of troops since World War II. Other reports coming from the United States are stating that Obama has also nationalized the National Guard forces in Georgia, Alabama, Kansas, and perhaps Texas too.
Though Obama may have taken from these dissident States their National Guard forces, the Governors of the States of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia still have under their sole command their State Defense Forces to go against US Federal forces.
Important to note in this report is its stating that there are no US laws prohibiting National Guard troops from also joining their State’s Defense Forces, but would create a dilemma for those soldiers should they be called to service by them both at the same time. This dilemma occurred for many American soldiers during their Civil War with the great majority of them choosing to serve their States instead of the Federal Government.
To Governor Pawlenty’s fears of Obama appeasing America’s enemies, while at the same time harming its longstanding allies, their remains no doubt as during this past week alone he has put Israel’s security in grave danger by releasing previously classified US documents relating to their nuclear programme, while at the same time removing sanctions on Russian arms makers supplying Iran. And in a move that even Russian military analysts are calling “insane”, Obama this week said he has decided to pre-announce to the World once-secret American ballistic missile tests and satellite launches.
To Governor Perry’s fears of Obama socializing the United States their remains no doubt either, and as we can read as reported yesterday by the USA Today News Service:
“Paychecks from private business shrank to their smallest share of personal income in U.S. history during the first quarter of this year, a USA TODAY analysis of government data finds.
At the same time, government-provided benefits — from Social Security, unemployment insurance, food stamps and other programs — rose to a record high during the first three months of 2010.
Those records reflect a long-term trend accelerated by the recession and the federal stimulus program to counteract the downturn. The result is a major shift in the source of personal income from private wages to government programs.”
And in an even worse move against his own people who are still struggling to survive the growing Global economic collapse, new reports from the United States are stating that a “secret” programme found hidden in Obama’s socialist healthcare law called the Community Living Assistance Services and Support Act (CLASS Act) is about to take from them another $150-$250 a month from their paychecks forcing tens of millions more of them into abject poverty and debt slavery.
To the final outcome of these events it is not in our knowing, other than to remind these Americans of Dr. Igor Panarin’s 2008 prediction of the fate lying in store for them, and as we can read as reported by London’s Telegraph News Service in their article titled “US will collapse and break up, Russian analyst predicts”, and which says:
“Igor Panarin, a professor at the Diplomatic Academy of the Russian foreign affairs ministry, said the economic turmoil in the US had confirmed his long-held belief that the country was heading for extinction in its present form.
In an interview with the Russian newspaper Izvestia, he outlined how the US would divide along ethnic and cultural lines.
They are: the Pacific coast with its growing Chinese population; the increasingly Hispanic South; independence-minded Texas; the Atlantic Coast; a central state with a large Native American population; and the northern states where – he maintains – Canadian influence is strong.
Alaska could be claimed by Russia, he said, claiming that the region was “only granted on lease, after all”.
He said the country’s break-up would be accelerated by rising unemployment and Americans losing their savings.
“The dollar isn’t secured by anything. The country’s foreign debt has grown like an avalanche; this is a pyramid, which has to collapse,” said Prof Panarin.”
And to those Americans believing they will be able to defend themselves against the fast approaching onslaught meant to destroy them they should think again, for even as these words are being written, Obama, through the United Nations, is preparing to disarm them all under the so called UN Treaty On Arms Control that he ordered his government to sign.
The late great American dissident comedian George Carlin once said, “It’s called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it”….one can only hope these poor souls will awaken from their long slumber before all is lost.

DOMA

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com

When the apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Greek Corinthians about wisdom, he knew what he was talking about -- of course being filled with Holy Spirit.  "For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.   For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness." ~ 1st Cor. 3:19.   I just love this stuff !!  There is no way a man can go wrong with God's Word, the Bible !!  This is why it took the Lord God over 6000 years to prove to all his intelligent creation that His way was the only smart, loving way to rule....   with every conceivable "Gov't" tried and failed -- even so-called Democracy.  And you need an educated population to make a Democracy work -- and obama and his demons are doing their best to 'dumb-down' the school system in Amerika!  And guess what 'group' of kids in the US have the largest drop out rating....duh?  Does that make for good Gov't?  Shake your head "NO !"  Is it not fitting now that even our so-called 'Democratic Republic' will be the last form of Government on Earth before the Beast arrives -- followed by Armageddon and then the Kingdom of Jesus Christ for 1000 years!  Yes, we have come full circle to wrap things up and prove what the Lord started in the Garden of Eden, 6000 years ago!  Not billions of years ago as some goofy teachers lie about.    Ha Ha!  People don't like to hear about this Truth.  But remember, please:  That Jesus traced his genealogy all the way back to ADAM, at Luke 3: 23 !  That means, if someone calls the accounts of Noah and the Flood, and Adam and Eve fairy tales --- they are also calling Jesus a liar !!  How do you like them apples ? 

So, what ever lame excuse people use to promote the so-called Gay agenda, being "queer" or a faggot, still doesn't cut any ice.  We can candy coat it, dip it in any flavor you like, it's a sin against God and nature!  Can a person be a homosexual and still have God's Grace, and get to heaven??  That is a subject for some other time.  But I would say that it might be difficult to be a real Christian and also preach/ share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, while being Gay.    Personally,  I had to give up a bunch of stuff after accepting Jesus as my personal Lord and Saviour, and am still WORKING AT IT !!  We will never be perfect on this Earth [talking about the Bride of Christ -- the Church/ Congregation of Christ] -- but only after we get to heaven, for that matter, but we ought to start getting into that mind set NOW, don't you think? 

Can you all wrap your minds around the fact that 72% of black kids in the USA are now born out of wedlock ??  Wow!  After being in America for almost 200 years and billions of welfare dollars, and many social Gov't programs, what and why is this so?  MONEY $$$$$  money!!  I would bet that if the laws were suddenly changed so that families would get nothing for an illicit baby -- born out of wedlock, the situation would prob change over night!  Incentive! 

I may be wrong again,  but the next few months will be extremely exciting, friends.  The real Christian community believes that the Rapture could come any time now.... and BANG, that will be it !  People "Left Behind" will feel so badly, and have to go it alone, WITH OUT the Holy Spirit, because He too will be gone, along with the Believers who get Raptured up.  And then God will blind the eyes and send delusion to most of the people on Earth so that they are doomed.  And any folks left behind will have to fend for themselves with out the Spirit helping them.  It will be a sad scene, with much despair, agony, hurt, shame and lawlessness....   good grief, Charlie Brown.  But now, WE Christian will struggle a bit, to stay focused, alert, sober, with out sights on the Lord and His divine Plan.  And friends, I know that I have felt sorry for myself lately with aches, pains, and now diagnosed with CHF, and disability, but I believe that I've got my mind right again and self determination to lose lots of weight, new diet [way of life] so that I can have SOME quality of life, and also support my pretty wife, Terri [as always]... and pay off bills, etc.  When a person is suddenly faced with a pre-mature death reality -- all the rest of his material things don't amount to a hill of beans !!  Let the money grubbing world of selfish, greedy people spin themselves into a dither!  "A lover of silver will never be content with silver."

I bid you all peace and a close relationship with Jesus Christ.  Enjoy Spring, if  you can.  Stock up and PREPARE !    Do not let the police state or DHS bully you into giving up your Constitutional Rights !  Know and memorize your Rights, and your Scriptures too.
Comments welcome.

Cordially,
Tom Schuckman

The debate over gay marriage has taken center stage with two cases, one involving California's Proposition 8 which bans it, and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) which bars federal agencies recognizing the validity of same-sex marriages in the states where they are legal, now before the U.S. Supreme Court.
We have argued that the civil purpose of marriage is not and never has been to reaffirm the love of two people for one another.
Nor is marriage primarily a business arrangement.
This country and healthy societies around the world and throughout history have given marriage between a man and a woman special legal protection because of the recognition that it is the one institution that ensures the society's stable future through the orderly procreation and upbringing of children.
In this context, we find the decline in marriage and the rise in illegitimacy, prime factors in crime, poverty and societal decay, being virtually ignored as the Supreme Court looks at the penumbras and emanations from the Constitution to decide whether Adam and Steve can legally tie the knot.
We should be more concerned about that than about gay rights and free contraceptives. As traditional marriage breaks down, so does society.
We have certainly come a long way from "The Cosby Show." In 1965, Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote "The Negro Family: A Case for National Action."
At the time, 25% of black children were born out of wedlock, a number Moynihan called alarming. Today, 72% of black children are now born out of wedlock. In fact, 36% of white children are born out of wedlock. Of Hispanic children, 53% are born outside of marriage.

Critical Misunderstandings.

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com

I thought that this was very interesting and so glad to understand these finer points more clearly today !!  I know some folks who lean toward the Gay  life style,. unfortunately -- which always repelled me as  a gross sin, having been brought up 'Old School' and Conservative. After I went to Vietnam, much of my mindset changed, as combat can do that to a person with death all around you, every stinking day!  Sorry.  It's just a fact of life that you have to get  used to, or go batty.  You learn to put "Mr. Death" in your hip pocket and make friends with 'him' because he might visit  you sometime....
     But when you think of it a person can sin -- also die from any of a number of things.... drown, get shot from a gun,, knifed, care accident, or heart attack, and the common result is always death.  So too, no matter what sin  you do/  actually being BORN with sin in us, we are all condemned to go to HELL!!  But Praise the Lord that Jesus PAID that price for us on the cross to take AWAY OUR SINS, that we can be "Justified" by God and go to heaven, IF WE TRULY BELIEVE AND ACCEPT THAT RANSOM SACRFICE OF CHRIST!!  Wow!  The more I think about it, pray/ study and learn about the mercy of God, I am sooooooo   thankful, because I could have been so stupid and proud so as NOT to accept Jesus -- and headed for a nasty place FOREVER!  
     Well, my good friends and readers,  I just got off the phone talking to the "gate keeper" of my good doctor, Carlos Medina -- and his nurse, Laurie, at the local IM - VAMC, and we talked about my heart and what I must change in my life style.  Getting some new medicine for my "CHF" and feeling somewhat relieved that I am not totally dead yet --and not as bad as I thought before.  If I lose the weight and do what my doctor says, and see the VA cardiologist soon from Milwaukee, I will probably be OK.  PTL!   And thank you all for your many prayers and well wishes.  My friends talked to me about my "bucket list" --LOL, but I don't yearn to do something special or  wild/ crazy before I die, like jumping out of an airplane, etc.  I still have God's work to do, and need to get out and DO IT!!  I will be getting a big list of info, and encouraged to research CHF  {Congestive Heart Failure}  for myself on the InterNet!  Time to stop feeling sorry for myself and really treat my beautiful wife with more respect and kindness, take her out for some great food, movies, plays, concerts, and what ever she wants to do.  Terri is really my true "Soul Mate" and I love her to pieces -- so happy and glad that I married her!  I hope she is not too embarrassed when she reads this blog post today.  She is out doing her errands now, and we will go out for lunch today too.    Enjoy life NOW  -- but also put some canned goods, water, aside, for the coming 'Storm' that the goof ball in the WH is preparing for us RIGHT NOW!   I can talk to ya'll with more insight about mandy people losing their savings, money, 401K's, etc., if  you talk to me/ email me directly, and what my friends and I are doing to prepare.   If any of you want my 'special Prepping' advice and info -- just email:  tschuckman@aol.com  -- because I am too cautious to post those things on my humble Blog.  Sorry, Big Brother is watching everything now days, and forcefully taking fire arms from decent, honorable sane, Veterans RIGHT NOW in the USA !   Also read:  "Before it is News" web site.  Beware, brothers!

Warm Regards,

Critical Misunderstandings

Q. I have been witnessing to a friend who is a lesbian. She feels that since she believes in Jesus she is saved, but I have a problem with that because Satan and demons believe but we know they aren’t saved. Every time Jesus healed someone we know they believed in Him because they had faith He would heal them, yet Jesus told them to go sin no more. Repentance is a big part of Salvation and yet some people don’t believe you have to repent to go to heaven. They say John 3:16 says plainly that he that believes in him shall have eternal life. What about repenting?

A. You’ve touched on several critical misunderstandings of Scripture, so let’s take them one at a time.
First, James 2:19 says, “You believe there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that, and shudder.” Satan and his demons believe Jesus exists because they’ve seen Him. But neither this verse nor any other ever hints that they believe in him. And besides, Jesus became a man to save mankind. There’s no Scripture to support the idea of angels or demons being saved. If by saying she believes in Jesus, your friend means she believes Jesus died for her sins and rose again, then according to 1 Cor. 15:1-4 she is saved.
Second, Jesus did not include the general commandment to “sin no more” in all His healing miracles. He said it once in connection with a specific healing (John 5:14) and once in connection with forgiveness of the sin of adultery (John 8:11). If ceasing all sinful behavior was a condition of salvation, none us would be saved.
Third, the Greek word translated repentance in the New Testament means “to change one’s mind”. The reason it’s a big part of salvation is in order to be saved we first have to change our mind and accept the fact that we’re sinners. Then we have to change our mind and believe that Jesus died for our sins and rose again. Therefore, someone who is born again has already repented.
Behavioral changes happen after we’re saved as the Holy Spirit teaches us about living a life pleasing to God. But according to Romans 7:14-25 as long as we have a sin nature we will never completely stop sinning.
Finally, John 3:16 is only one among numerous verses that make belief a condition for salvation, but there are none that make salvation conditional upon behavior.

About Tea Party Command Center

Welcome to my humble Christian based Blog:  TOM'S JOURNAL.
My interest and goal is to reach as many people as I can before I die or get Raptured up to the Lord and His heaven as I possibly can.  My humble, sincere ministry of sorts is also aimed at other Disabled Combat Veterans, like myself, who hunger for the real TRUTH OF THE BIBLE -- the KJV which is considered the most pure rendition of God's Word, the Bible.  But, not to argue about the small fish, you can use what ever version you like...  I just want to hit the nail on the head, dead center, and get the true, simple meaning, as I have been a very serious student of the Scriptures for the past 40 some years and STILL continue to learn tons of good info all the time.  I welcome all your serious comments below, or just email:  tschuckman@aol.com
     For knowledgeable, born-again Christians, the "writing on the wall" is so simple and easy to understand with all the current world events that they almost jump out at you and bite you on the nose !!  People are running around, in this 2013 pressure cooker, like chickens with their head cut off, as my parents on the farm used to say.  There is only ONE true Hope, and that is JESUS CHRIST.  You can and need to get to know Him personally simply by praying for the Holy Spirit to open your eyes as you READ and STUDY THE WORD-- THE BIBLE!!  Scripture says that most people on Earth are not humble enough to do that, and so they run around, wringing their hands and trusting in they pagan/ heathen leaders who will only lead them down that wide and spacious road to ever lasting destruction.  Come... let us reason.  The Bible has never been wrong, and God cannot lie !   What side will you choose?  Don't go to heaven alone...  Take someone with you!
     Thank you all for your prayers, and as of today, things are going better for me, praise the Lord!  I am now dealing with a new health concern, recently diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure.  But the local VA wants to help me fight or control it with medicine, etc., and my diet has changed over night, and now a whole new regimen to lose weight BIG TIME!!  Ha!  Again, I repeat my old mantra:  "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."  Christians hurt, bleed, mourn, cry and suffer -- but we are armed with the Holy Spirit that lives inside of us, and with our Bible gained wisdom from God, things are not so bad... because we KNOW FOR A FACT that God's promise is good, that all who draw near to Him and His Son, Jesus, will be Saved and go to heaven!!  Pagans/ Heathens can die for what they believe  -- and so can a Soldier in Christ's Army !!  That has been the story for the last 2000 years since Jesus walked the Earth!

Warm Regards,
Tom Schuckman

Note from Jan: I have been watching the Cypress ordeal with great interest and wrote about it in my April-May print newsletter (sign up here). Bill Wilson has gone into much greater explanation below. This is a set up! Someone is waiting in the wings and he has already taken notes on how to implement the takeover of the people's funds. Wilson refers to the Antichrist below who is also called "The Beast" in the Bible. (Revelation 20:10)
How many warnings do we need that things are lining up for the end of the age, and the events taking place are all outlined in the Bible? And yet churches will not touch the topic of eschatology (end-time events). I get daily emails speaking of this sad state of the church and their rejection of a topic that is 1/3 of the Bible.
Dr. Dave Reagan and I discussed both the Antichrist and the False Prophet on my March 16 radio program. You can access that here or here.
Bill Wilson is an independent journalist who also writes for Koenig's International News.
Beast-Type Money Grab Serves as Prophetic Warning
By Bill Wilson
March 27, 2013
Revelation 13:17 speaks of the mark of the beast -- commonly known these days as the Antichrist: "And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." Often prophecy is revealed a layer at a time, seemingly to give God's people more understanding of what is about to come.
The tiny island of Cyprus may well serve as a modern petri dish for what could happen under a "beast" empire. The European Union has required Cyprus to shut down its state-owned bank and raid 40% of accounts above $130,000 to raise about $5.5 billion in exchange for a $13 billion bailout. Leading up to the deal, Cypriots were only allowed $130 per day in bank withdrawals.
Cyprus is divided into two parts -- one is recognized by the United Nations as a "democratic republic" and the other part is recognized by only Turkey. UN peacekeepers provide a buffer between the Muslim and Christian sides. The Communist party controls the politics in Cyprus.
Cyprus is a popular destination for "Arab" visitors. Sex trafficking and slavery are a problem in Cyprus, according to the U.S. State Department Trafficking in Persons report. It is also considered a "Casino" economy. In other words, Cyprus, like the United States, is in a fallen moral condition as well as a debt-ridden economic state.
The Cyprus national debt is $21 billion, or about $18,000 per person living in Cyprus.
In comparison, the U.S. National Debt is $16.7 TRILLION. With interest, it is $59.2 TRILLION, which is $187,645 per taxpayer. This, according to U.S. Debt Clock, which obtains its figures via the US Department of Treasury.
If the European Union is willing to confiscate bank accounts over $18,000 of debt for every person living in Cyprus, what would the occupant of the Oval Office be willing to do over $187,645 in debt from each taxpayer -- 10 times the amount in Cyprus? The US is a large reflection of Cyprus--a tax and spend socialist government and moral decay combining for a "beast"-type government takeover.
The EU action in Cyprus should serve as a stiff warning to all of what a powerful government can do when the people are unable and/or unwilling to defend themselves against it. For example, Cyprus has the same gun policy that the federal government is proposing in America -- gun owners must be licensed and prove a genuine reason to possess a gun. The Cyprus population is essentially disarmed. It had no will nor ability to prevent the EU action.
While we cannot stop the march of prophecy, we can determine our place in it. As the people of Cyprus have determined their place in the EU, the citizens of America can look at this example and decide -- beast submission or self-determination.
Best decide before it's too late.
Note from Jan: This disaster is already spreading. Read about it here. We have hardly seen the end and knowing our present administration, America is vulnerable. My thanks to Bill Wilson for his thoughts above.

The REAL News!

Tom's Journal. http://tomschuckmanjournal.blogspot.com/ tschuckman@aol.com

It be a cloudy, chilly day again, but the congregation learned a lot from Pastor Kevin Sullivan, again.  We had to use the Iron Mountain, MI  High School to hold services again, because the church is under repair, and will get a new sewer, etc. $$$. 
   Did  you brothers know that the more you donate/ give to the Lord -- the more He will shower YOU will many blessings?? True!  So even though I now have too much CC debt, and still trying to 'move mountains' in selling my old house in WI., I firmly believe and pray that God will bless me.  NOT with a new Cadillac, but enough to live on, share and gift others who need it more than me.  Folks that are money-grabbers, stingy, selfish, misers, will  NEVER get what they want, nor be satisfied.  Better to live in an old shack with no running water but with a good, loving spouse/ mate, than live in a palace with bickering, hate, injurious speech, constant fighting, and no real LOVE !! 
     Well, I cannot tell you where and what I will be doing in the next few days, except that I must see my personal VA doctor to follow up on the bad news of me having  Congestive Heart Failure disease.   That news on the phone really shook me up, so that now there is no other way but to lose MUCH weight fast, change my diet radically, eat mostly veggies, no soda pop, sugar, pies, cakes, and drink lots of water!!  Wow!  Plus new medicine and maybe a procedure at the Milwaukee VAMC... which I dread -- as I don't trust those butchers more than I can spit !

I am more relaxed now and have put my real CARE and KEEPING in  the hands of the Lord, because I dedicated my life to him about 20 years ago, and am an "Oath taker." 

"For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."  Guys,  You Must know [I hope] that when you are suddenly faced with a 'life or death issue' -- nothing in the world means anything to you -- the way I see it.  Material things are so foolish and vain! The only thing that matters is you good standing with God,  your relationship to Him and your promise to be His humble servant/ slave.

Warm Regards, Hugs,

Tom Schuckman

I love Terri M. Schuckman !
